Whether the appeal became moot after the disability insurance office fully reconsidered its refusal and granted the requested medical measures.
Yes. The reconsideration gave full satisfaction to the appellants' request and therefore deprived the appeal of any object.
Under Art. 53(3) LPGA, a social insurer may reconsider a challenged decision before sending its response to the appellate authority. If the reconsideration fully meets the appeal requests, the appeal is without object and the case must be removed from the docket.
